Property Description
This 3-bedroom, 1-bath home is a great opportunity for a first-time buyer looking for an affordable place to call home with several recent updates already completed. The interior features fresh paint, new flooring, and an updated bathroom, helping make the home move-in ready without the need for immediate projects. One of the standout features is the generous room sizes, offering more space than many homes in this price range. The covered front porch provides a welcoming spot to relax, and the large backyard offers plenty of room for outdoor enjoyment, pets, or future improvements. Located in South St. Louis County and within the Hancock Place School District, the home offers convenient access to nearby highways, shopping, restaurants, and everyday amenities. This is a practical option for buyers who value space, updates, and affordability, and who want the chance to build equity over time. A solid choice for someone ready to stop renting and take their first step into homeownership.
